I can’t seem to keep Tara Sive and Teri Wilson apart。 First in Once Upon A Royal Summer and now again in this one。 Still， I like both of their stories very much。 As a closet-Disney fan…。 No scratch that: I’m a Disney fan and proud of it。 So， naturally， these cute stories on pretend princesses， who end up with real princes， are just up my alley。Gracie is a kindhearted cute and funny girl， who is determined to secure the future of her princess employees。 And if this entails entering a princess com I can’t seem to keep Tara Sive and Teri Wilson apart。 First in Once Upon A Royal Summer and now again in this one。 Still， I like both of their stories very much。 As a closet-Disney fan…。 No scratch that: I’m a Disney fan and proud of it。 So， naturally， these cute stories on pretend princesses， who end up with real princes， are just up my alley。Gracie is a kindhearted cute and funny girl， who is determined to secure the future of her princess employees。 And if this entails entering a princess competition in a foreign country， so be it。 Pretty awesome， Teri: two female entrepreneurs with glitter。 Love it！ And Nick， the grumpy exterior prince with a heart of gold。 of course it is sugary sweet， but for Disney-aholics like myself the sugar fix is just a survival necessity。 So thank you Netgalley， for providing my fix （uhm… my arc） and five out of five stars from me。 。。。more

Princess Snowflake is my favorite princess and I’m pretty sure my daughter would love her too！ The romance that developed between princess Snowflake and prince Nikolas was so warm and rich like the hot chocolate from San Glacera。 Such a beautiful story that’s perfect for this holiday season！

Loved this sweet fairytale romance， Love Gracie who has a heart of gold as well as Nick whom everyone has disdain for cause they do not know his true self 。I loved how they first met ， giving them a chance at real first impressions。 A great holiday story。

I really really liked this audiobook！ I can’t help it。 I’m a sucker for royal， Hallmark type stories！ The fact that this is a Christmas story is icing on the royal cake。 I enjoyed both the hero and heroine （Prince Nikolas and Gracie）。 This book was well written and kept me interested from the first chapter to the last。 It was funny sometimes and other times pulled at my heartstrings。 I enjoyed the sweetness of this story around the holiday season。 The narrator did a great job。

You can't expect a "real" prince to take someone called "Princess Snowflake" seriously， right？ But he should。 Eventually， he even comes to believe in her power！ Two people who are each hurting， in their own way， find that being there for one another - helping the other and people around them - makes for a joyous and wonderful holiday AND future （life）！ I enjoyed this second book， too。 You can't expect a "real" prince to take someone called "Princess Snowflake" seriously， right？ But he should。 Eventually， he even comes to believe in her power！ Two people who are each hurting， in their own way， find that being there for one another - helping the other and people around them - makes for a joyous and wonderful holiday AND future （life）！ I enjoyed this second book， too。 。。。more

I received a copy of this audiobook from Net Galley for an honest review。A hallmark movie in book form！ Everything you love about Hallmark movies was present in this book。 I fell in love with the party princess right along with the prince。 It was sweet and believable。 I will be looking for more books from this author。

This was a fun， festive， and heartwarming Christmas story。 Gracie runs a business where she and others dress up as princesses for children's parties and hospital visits。 She is anxious to expand her business and give her employees the benefits she feels they deserve。 Unfortunately， getting a bank loan has proved to be impossible。 So her cousin and business partner， Clara， enters her into a contest with the royal family of San Glacera。 The winner gets $30，000 and spends a week with the royal fami This was a fun， festive， and heartwarming Christmas story。 Gracie runs a business where she and others dress up as princesses for children's parties and hospital visits。 She is anxious to expand her business and give her employees the benefits she feels they deserve。 Unfortunately， getting a bank loan has proved to be impossible。 So her cousin and business partner， Clara， enters her into a contest with the royal family of San Glacera。 The winner gets $30，000 and spends a week with the royal family during their Christmas festival。 Gracie has no confidence that she will win and is stunned when she does。Meanwhile， in San Glacera， Prince Nicolas is not happy that they will be entertaining "Princess Snowflake。" He agrees that their winter tourism needs help but thinks Gracie is not the way to do it。 Nick has the reputation of being a grump， thanks to an old girlfriend， and has done nothing to disabuse people of it。 His initial impression is that of a humorless stick-in-the-mud， and only his sister Emilie can get past it。I enjoyed seeing the relationship between Nick and Gracie develop。 Neither knows who the other is when they first meet， and they hit it off。 I loved seeing Nick show Gracie around the Christmas Village and how he saw things through her eyes。 The blinders come off later that evening， and Nick behaves like a complete jerk。 Each is furious as their preconceived ideas about each other appear to be correct。 But a commitment is a commitment， and both agree to follow the program set out for them。 For the first event or two， Nick and Gracie are stiff and uncomfortable together。 Then Nick realizes that his people have taken her to their hearts， and he starts to see the warm-hearted woman beneath the over-the-top princess dress and tiara。 Gracie soon sees that Nick's icy exterior hides a soft heart and deep love for his country and its people。I enjoyed every event that Nick and Gracie did together。 Each one was described so vividly that I felt as though I was there with them。 Nick warmed my heart with the candy cane scene and won it entirely with their time at the animal shelter。 Gracie made me laugh out loud during the snowball fight， and I loved how she helped Nick lighten up and learn to have fun。 They also worked together to help the visiting princess with her puppy problem。 All the time they spent together getting to know each other contributed to the feelings growing between them。 But Nick is an actual prince， and Gracie is a pretend princess， and both are wary of expressing those feelings。I ached for Nick because he was so caught up in his responsibilities as a prince that he'd forgotten how to live until he met Gracie。 It takes a kick in the pants from his dad and his sister to make him realize what he has to lose。 Gracie believes there is no way for them to be together and is ready to take her broken heart home。 I loved the surprise he arranged for her and how it made her feel。 The biggest event of her time in San Glacera is on Christmas Eve， and she is very nervous about it。 I loved how her time with Nick gave her the confidence to overcome those nerves。 I loved that scene and seeing Nick pull off the biggest surprise of all。 The epilogue was the perfect wrap-up。#netgalley 。。。more

Once Upon A Royal Christmas written by Teri Wilson needs to be turned into a Hallmark movie。 I loved this book， but at times I felt like certain parts were rushed， therefore I had to rate this book four stars。 This book will give you all the Christmas and wintery vibes possible。 I have never read a book written by Teri Wilson before this one， but in the near future I will definitely check out her other books。 I'm a sucker for this time of year with Christmas books and Hallmark Christmas movies。 Once Upon A Royal Christmas written by Teri Wilson needs to be turned into a Hallmark movie。 I loved this book， but at times I felt like certain parts were rushed， therefore I had to rate this book four stars。 This book will give you all the Christmas and wintery vibes possible。 I have never read a book written by Teri Wilson before this one， but in the near future I will definitely check out her other books。 I'm a sucker for this time of year with Christmas books and Hallmark Christmas movies。 The cover for this book is absolutely gorgeous。 I went into this book completely blind， which I highly recommend doing because it made the smiles and giggles more worth it。 There were so many heart warming moments that you can't help but just smile your way through。 I will admit this book was a bit cheesy， more than I bargained for， but still a great story。 Despite the rushed parts， it was still an enjoyable book。 I want to try San Glacera's famous hot chocolate with a Hershey kiss at the bottom。 Let me be honest， I have never read a Royal Christmas story before， but i'm glad I chose this one to be my first because it was lovely。 THANK YOU TO NETGALLEY AND HALLMARK PUBLISHING FOR AN ARC OF THIS BOOK IN EXCHANGE FOR AN HONEST REVIEW！！！！！Gracie Clark pretends to be a princess at children's parties， but can she melt a real prince's frosty heart？ Gracie Clark aka Princess Snowflake plays "dress up" as a real life princess for children in the hospital and attends numerous birthday parties。 As a young woman who "dresses up"， Gracie is not taken seriously by many。 When Gracie tries to get a bank loan for her Party Princesses business， she is denied because she's not a "real princess"。 Gracie is trying to expand her business and trying to give the other princesses the benefits they deserve before the holidays。 When Gracie is denied for a bank loan by numerous banks， her best friend and business partner， Clara enters them into a competition for "A Winter Wonderland Contest" in San Glacera。 The prize money is worth $30，000， Gracie could use that money to pay back the other party princesses and expand her business， but there's only one condition for this contest， Gracie has to sing on Christmas Eve。 Singing brings back memories that Gracie doesn't want to be reminded of。 Prince Nikolas of San Glacera was away on a trip to honor the San Glacera's military， when the palace talked his family into holding a contest。 San Glacera relies on winter tourism， but this year they are attracting fewer and fewer tourists， due to a store that was put out by Prince Nikolas's ex-girlfriend。 Prince Nikolas's ex-girlfriend said he's a stone cold person， but when a photo of Prince Nikolas is out in the kingdom's newspaper， he looks frosty with icicles hanging off his beard。 The winner of this contest gets to play a character in their annual Ice Village festivities and accompany the royal family to holiday events。 As Princess Snowflake and Prince Nikolas are out for a stroll in the kindom's village， the two run into each other and。。。。。 surprise sparks fly。 Gracie and Prince Nikolas have so much in common， and the two start falling for each other。 Prince Nikolas understands Gracie more than anyone ever could。 Once Upon A Royal Christmas was cheesy， festive， fun， and heart warming。 As cheesy as it was， the chemistry between the characters worked really well for me。 The "Royal Hot Chocolate" recipe at the end of the book was a big bonus。 This book is a clean romance， so no spicy scenes， just a few kisses here and there。 I felt the Christmas cheer through the entire book。 Once I started reading this book， I didn't want to put it down once， but you know the Christmas decorating is well worth stopping a book for。 When a book leaves you smiling， you know it's the type of book you'll never forget。 I love learning how other people celebrate/decorate for Christmas， it's so inspiring， and gives me so many new ideas。 There were so many tasty treats involved in this story， and boy did I want to try all of them because you all know a girl loves their sweet treats， especially if there's chocolate involved。 Please do yourself a favor and grab a copy of this book for the Christmas and holiday season， you won't be disappointed despite the cheesy romance， but that's what makes you laugh while reading a book。 。。。more

I thoroughly enjoyed this book！ This truly was a Hallmark movie in a book。 I had a very hard time putting this down to do other things。 It’s a really nice sweet clean romance， just the type of thing you would expect from Hallmark。 It did start off kind of slow， but I have come to expect that from romance novels。 And once it gets going， it *really* gets going！ If you like Hallmark movies， you’ll like this book！I received an ARC from the publisher for purposes of an unbiased review。
